The WhoMy Generation

Roger Daltrey stutters like a kid too wound up to get the words out, and the band detonates behind him. 'My Generation' snarls with John Entwistle's rubber-band bass solo and a rhythm section that sounds ready to smash its own gear. 'The Kids Are Alright' softens into ringing harmonies and restless swagger, mod anthem and heartbreak at once. 'The Ox' is a pure instrumental thrashing, all surf-guitar chaos and pounding drums. The Who arrived loud, young, and looking for a fight. Play it and duck.
